Pokémon: Hoenn Storm

Chapter 400 Stories and Legends (35)

Driving a small boat on the lake, the spring wind should be slightly warm, but it adds a bit of coolness on the water.

Swampert and Mariluli had already jumped into the water, one was lying on the water to rest, and the other was exploring the bottom of the lake, which was getting deeper as it went south, and began its own "treasure hunt."

After all, it is an inland lake. There are not many types of Pokémon here, but there are quite a few.

Magikarp are still as prevalent as ever, and it seems that wherever there is water, there will be countless of them.

Cape goldfish and starfish are also often seen in the water and at the bottom, similar to agate jellyfish.

Mariluli, who was enjoying herself in the water, plunged to the bottom of the lake and scared away a few resting pearl oysters.

Although not being able to sing makes the little one a little uncomfortable, it is still okay to look around and find something that makes you like.

After a while, it found a small golden ball from the mud at the bottom of the pond.

"puff"

Amidst the crisp sound of water, it emerged from the bottom of the water and jumped onto the boat wetly, causing the boat to shake left and right.

Then, it put the small beads on Lai's hand like a treasure.

Lai, who was concentrating with his eyes closed, took the hand, looked at it carefully, smiled, rubbed Mariluli's little head, and said:

"You are lucky. It seems to be a golden bead. Let Naqi keep it for you. If you want to take it out and play with it, just ask her."

"Mary Mary"

Humming a song, Mariluli happily jumped into the water again.

The water splashed everywhere, covering the head and face of Fengsu dog, who was pawing next to him.

"Ow?"

The confused big dog opened his eyes wide, his face full of innocence.

"Duoliduoli!"

Doronmesia called up little Eevee, whom she had just met but was already very close to, and took the reluctant Sonic Dragon along with him, preparing to hunt for treasure in the water as well.

Mary Luli's successful experience gave the little one great confidence and encouragement.

[Lai, I want to play! 】

Jirachi was also driven by this enthusiasm, got off Rai's shoulder, and flew leisurely towards the water.

"Let's all go have fun. Just be careful. If you encounter danger, remember to come up quickly."

In a daze, Lai gave a few instructions, then leaned on Naqi's shoulder again and took a nap.

"Don't sleep, don't sleep! Let's talk about something fun!"

On the opposite side, Cortna lightly kicked Len.

"Huh?! What?"

Sensing a strange movement, Rai woke up.

"I mean, let's talk about something fun!"

Cortner pouted.

"Well, let me tell you about our story in the southwest? For example, Jirachi?"

"Okay, okay! This sounds interesting!"

"This goes back to when Naqi and I were traveling together from the South China Sea Islands to Pal Island. A storm lasted all night and made us lose our way."

Under Naqi's gentle eyes, Lay told Cortner bit by bit the wonderful stories the two had experienced in the past six months.

Starting from Jirachi on the Island of Prayer, to the fierce battle in the rain off the coast of Chenghua, and then to the great development of the golden waterway in the northwest.

One after another, one after another, Ketna's eyes lit up when she heard it, and she wished she could experience it herself.

Time passes slowly on the calm lake.

Several Pokémon were resting or playing on the water or under the water.

······
"After talking so much, we have finished telling our story. What follows is what happened after we met."

After clapping his hands, Lai also spoke a little dryly, but Naqi took a big gulp from the water bottle that Na Qi handed over. "That's great. Your experience in the past six months is much richer than my two-year travel experience."

She didn't even bother to chew the bubble gum, and Cortina was very envious, and the look she looked at Na Qi became a little complicated, but soon, she adjusted, and returned to her usual smirk with a slightly wicked taste.

"Return the favor, since you have contributed such a wonderful story, I have to tell you something interesting too!"

"Oh? What do you want to say?"

"How about telling us about the legend of Groudon?"

"This is a good topic. What do you think, Naqi?"

"I'm interested too."

"Okay! Then I'll tell you! In many records, everyone thinks that Groudon sleeps under the main peak of Chimney Volcano, or in the crater, or deep underground, so every time it goes berserk , both chimney volcanoes and offshoots will erupt."

"But in fact, according to our records, this is not the case. Gulardo is not sleeping all the time, nor is he running away apart from sleeping, but he often moves between Fengyuan's leylines. Every possible volcano in the middle and north , may be its resting place.”

The legendary story of the mountain people that Cortner told was also something Rai knew.

He also knows that the Gulardo at this moment and for some time to come is under the volcano at most one or two hundred kilometers west of Yinyu City.

There, it was not far from Cournoye, the mountain people town that was about to be rebuilt.

"That's it for the legend of Groudon. However, since Groudon is mentioned, there is a legendary Pokémon that must be mentioned, hehehe!"

When Cortna said this, she deliberately let it slip.

"Is it Sidoran? Do you have any interesting stories?"

Naqi took over the words. She just heard Lai talk about it yesterday, and she immediately exposed Cortner.

"Eh?! Sheetran isn't very common, right? Forget it, it's Sheetran. According to legend, it's because Sheetran is not a single divine Pokémon, nor is it like Lugia. There are very few gods with a group of people, but there are quite a few, so under every active volcano, there is a Xidoran who suppresses the eruption!"

"Sidoran particularly likes magma and high temperatures, but their steel-like bodies cannot fully withstand it, so they often struggle repeatedly in the process of dissolving, condensing, strengthening, and dissolving again until their bodies are strong enough. powerful, or destroyed by an erupting volcano.”

"It sounds so cruel and painful." Naqi couldn't bear to hear it.

"So, the life of a god is also very hard."

Cortina nodded sympathetically.

"However, it is also very romantic. The Pokémon's blood is as hot as lava. If it can really withstand the high temperature from inside and outside, it will definitely be unrivaled and powerful, and maybe it can compete with Groudon. Woolen cloth!"

As a powerful trainer who specializes in fire, the admiration for these two powerful Pokémon is almost inevitable in the process of growing up.

Even a trainer like Rai who knows enough about divine Pokémon will pay respect to powerful beings who hold power or suppress one party.

"Tell me, which volcano is Xidulan En of Hoenn located in? We have so many volcanoes that we really can't find it."

Cortna said with curiosity and a little regret. It would be a blessing to see a real legendary Pokémon.

Unfortunately, the only legendary Pokémon she had ever come into contact with since she was a child was the legendary Pokémon, which she forcibly possessed.

"Wind Speed ​​Dog, come here and let me pet you!"

Thinking of this, she greeted the wind speed dog who was still thumping happily in the distance.

"Ow?"

The big dog saw the trainer's call and happily swam over. His wet hair kept moving towards Cortna's body, and then she caught him and rubbed the dog's head angrily.

Cortena was rubbing vigorously, and the water surface in the distance began to vibrate violently.

"Mary Mary Mary!"

On the water, Mariluli was swimming back quickly, obviously frightened.

Beside it, there were Jirachi, Doronmecia, Sonic Dragon and Little Eevee who were playing together without realizing it.

"Kamo?"

Also feeling the violent tremors was the Swamp Monster lying leisurely sleeping on the water. It had rarely rested for a day and was full of sleep at this time, which is when it was full of energy.

Hearing the noise, it immediately turned over into the water and swam towards Mariluli and the others who were still in shock.
